    I'm being stalked and harrased through PM by a member of WordForge, but I don't know who to report it to given the new three-headed leadership of the board.

    Who do I talk to about this?

    I would assume you could talk to any of the three of them. They will probably discuss what to do about it between themselves anyway, so just pick one at random, IMO. :shrug:

    Ok, good to know. I'd like to give this person a chance to knock it off on their own, since it would be in their best interest to do so, but I know what to do if they don't.

    Stalking is a serious charge, and not something you should be insinuating about anyone unless there is a real basis for it.

    And if there is a basis, I think I can speak for Lanzman and Chris when I say we would like to know about it so we can have a word with the person.

    'That other guy" isn't Chris. :rolleyes:

    It's that tech admin.

    No, not Nick; he's taking a break right now. That other one, the guy who never makes any lists.

    Something like this:

    We have 2 tech admins at WordForge:
    [-]Nick[/-] [on leave]
    someone else

    What was his name again?

    Well, Meka, I guess that if you are gonna stalk me, I suppose one just has to get used to the sound of clicking stilletos...:lol:

    Come to think of it, though, I was followed around by a ghost one time...:calli:
